This December 13, gather the family for a Christmas tradition unlike any other: master storyteller Tim Lowry's spellbinding, one-man interpretation of Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol, brought to life inside the historic—and wonderfully moody—McCandless Hall on the campus of Athens State University. 🕯️ With nothing but his voice and presence, Lowry conjures Scrooge, the ghosts, and all of Victorian London before your eyes, turning a couple of hours into a memory the whole family will hold onto. Bring the kids to the 2:00pm matinee for an afternoon of holiday magic they'll ask for year after year, or slip away for the 7:00pm evening performance for a quieter, more atmospheric escape into the season with the grandparents. However you choose to go, settle in and let yourselves get lost in the timeless charm of the story. This is what the holidays are made for.
Storyteller Tim Lowry has traveled from coast to coast presenting Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol in theaters, restaurants, churches, libraries, and living rooms. He has surpassed the author himself for number of performances with over 200 shows to his credit. Many families have made his performance of this beloved ghost story an annual tradition. Tim performed “The Carol” at the National Storytelling Festival in 2014 and the show has been a perennial favorite ever since. He has been the featured performer for the annual Dickens Dinner at the award-winning restaurant Circa 1886 in Charleston, SC for 24 years and counting!
